Lull Telehandlers
Lull telehandlers have been in production ever since 1959. They specialize in load placement. For more accurate placement capabilities, their patented Stabil-Trak stability system offers a lot more precise placement capabilities. Lull telehandlers offer a large variety of optional attachments and these telehandlers are available to help you accomplish all your requirements, while being safe and efficient at the worksite. When both accuracy and precision are really important, leave it to a Lull telehandler to accomplish everything you require.
The Future
To be able to make rough terrain forklifts as functional as possible, many attachments have been engineered and developed such as winches, booms, and rotating fork carriages, to allow the forklift to position materials more precisely. The booms or articulating booms are available in 2 different extendible arms and are able to reach up and over structures so as to position loads on interior roof slope settings or in the upper or center floors. New products and attachments are being developed and engineered all the time and will debut in the future.
With extra safety features becoming more prevalent, some improvements have been made. For example, load-reach management devices are able to restrict the forklift's reach automatically, based on the load being handled rather than relying on the operator. Pressure sensors are utilized to be able to know the load weight. This information is sent to a small electronic memory device which had all the load-reach limitations pre-programmed into it.
The boom's memory will compare the extension and the angle of the boom with the safety limits, when the load is being placed into position. There is an essential lock-up device or a warning system which prevents the operator from over-reaching and potentially causing the boom to fail or the forklift to tip over.
